York White Roses 1940 6 Panel Cap – Blue

This York White Roses 1940 Cap takes its design inspiration from the original York White Roses' caps worn for the short-lived Keystone Association in 1884. The league disbanded after only 20 games. The White Roses transferred to the Eastern League after the Harrisburg Olympics folded. The team remained in the Eastern League until the 1893 season when York joined the Pennsylvania State League. This cap is constructed from a wool broadcloath, with felt appliqued letters on the crown and tonal eyelets on this six panel hat. Adjustment comes by way of leather strap and metal clasp. The crown is reinforced by a horsehair backing with a cotton headband inside.
